Important Reminders ...

• Always protect your ACU Visa Check Card & Personal Identification Number (PIN) as you would cash, checks, and credit cards.
• DO NOT keep your PIN with your ACU VISA Check Card and always keep it confidential!
• Keep your receipts when making purchases & ATM transactions with your card and record them in your check register when you return home.
• You may make point-of-sale purchases up to the available balance in your checking account (less any ATM withdrawals). Transactions in excess of the available balance will be declined.
• Remember your ACU VISA Check Card is Not a Credit Card. VISA Check Card transactions are automatically withdrawn from your checking account.
• When making point-of-sale purchases tell the merchant you plan to pay with VISA.
• When traveling out of the country notify ACU beforehand. In an effort to prevent fraud, VISA monitors card activity and spending habits of every cardholder. If your card is used out of the country or out of your normal shopping pattern, Visa will attempt to contact you to verify that you are actually performing the transactions. If they are unable to reach you, they may temporarily put a hold on your account in an effort to stop fraudulent activity. By notifying ACU, Visa will have a record of your travels and will know that you are personally using your card in a foreign country.
